Wrong Fuel Assist Rownhams - Rownhams Vehicle Misfuel

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Monday and I was on the way to assist an older woman after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Skoda in Rownhams. I'd been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and stranded along a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I punched her location in the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I reached the car and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was working she told me, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had just got it several days ago because my previous car, which I owned for about thirty years, finally died". I finished the drain and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Hampshire lady!

Our Areas of Competency :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Hampshire we are noticing progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously do not start up the motor - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Rownhams (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to take care of the standard issues that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

We drained the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the engine completely and the customer could then continue with his sheduled delivery.

Wrong Fuel Assist Rownhams - Rownhams Wrong Fuel Drain

A driver from Rownhams with her children in her diesel Dacia had put £45 of petrol at the station. She called us crying and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what might happen to her vehicle . We reassured her that all would be ok and that she would be back ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."

Fuel Rescue Rownhams - Rownhams Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a great day cycling on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the following day as I set off to aid a new couple who were away in Rownhams. They pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their Mazda, and the car was around half an hour away. I turned up at their car and laughed while I heard to the woman berating her husband for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you even be able to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this problem comes to pass on daily basis in Hampshire and that it's truly nothing to fret about, but he in spite of everything got an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
